Fundamentals of explosion protection

Operations in many different industries can create explosive atmospheres that present a great danger to both life and equipment. In the chemical and petrochemical industries these are caused primarily by flammable gases, vapors or mists. In mining, mills and other areas, dust can combine with the air to become highly explosive. Unsafe equipment can ignite these mixtures, resulting in explosions.

Clean wastewater pumps without fiber collection

SIRIUS soft starter reduces the maintenance effort when pumps get blocked. Impellers are frequently blocked by sanitary and other waste products that are not intended for removal in wastewater. Blockages of this kind can be a costly aspect of wastewater handling and have to be removed manually.

Avoiding failures due to load fluctuations

SIRIUS soft starters make it easier to start conveyor systems. Loads fluctuate when bulk solids are being conveyed or processed. These fluctuations might be caused by a change in the angle of the conveyor belt, which influences the parameters. If the parameters that you have selected for subsequent motor starts do no match the altered load, you can damage the machine or get an aborted start.

Stopping pumps without water hammer

Switching off pumps that convey large volumes of water is a particular challenge. The pump stops immediately, causing the water in the pipes to also stop immediately. The kinetic energy still in the water is transmitted as "water hammer" onto pipes, couplings, valves, and seals. This damage can be serious to the pipe system.
